For the attention of Mr. C.Ward.

Dear Sirs,

re :- Myth Frame.

We find when designing the hand brake that it will be necessary to turn the top and bottom flanges of the frame centre gusset - RF.2243 rearwards.

Will you therefore hold up all work on this piece until you receive a later design which we hope to send you in the course of a few days.

We shall also at the same time alter the Left Hand centre gusset accordingly.

Yours faithfully,
